[Grok-dev] Upgrade problem "type object 'IRole' has no attribute '__iro__'"

[Sebastian Ware]

This is the code where the problem occurs:

     def init_extendors(self):
         self._extendors = {}
         for p in self._registry._provided:
             self.add_extendor(p)

     def add_extendor(self, provided):
         _extendors = self._extendors
         for i in provided.__iro__:   <======= THIS IS WHERE THE ERROR  
OCCURS!
             extendors = _extendors.get(i, ())
             _extendors[i] = (
                 [e for e in extendors if provided.isOrExtends(e)]
                 +
                 [provided]
                 +
                 [e for e in extendors if not provided.isOrExtends(e)]
                 )

     def remove_extendor(self, provided):
         _extendors = self._extendors
         for i in provided.__iro__:
             _extendors[i] = [e for e in _extendors.get(i, ())
                              if e != provided]

I have tracked down the code that should set this in [class  
Specification] (zope/interface/interface.py). Maybe I could solve this  
problem if I somehow could tell all the offending objects that they  
have changed (I am guessing the problem is related to more than one  
object). But how?

class Specification(SpecificationBase):

     [snip]

     def changed(self, originally_changed):
         """We, or something we depend on, have changed
         """

         implied = self._implied
         implied.clear()

         ancestors = ro(self)

         try:
             if Interface not in ancestors:
                 ancestors.append(Interface)
         except NameError:
             pass # defining Interface itself

         self.__sro__ = tuple(ancestors)
         self.__iro__ = tuple([ancestor for ancestor in ancestors
                               if isinstance(ancestor, InterfaceClass)
                               ])

         for ancestor in ancestors:
             # We directly imply our ancestors:
             implied[ancestor] = ()

         # Now, advise our dependents of change:
         for dependent in self.dependents.keys():
             dependent.changed(originally_changed)
